I uninstalled version 5 and figured I'd give v6 a try. After installing Eraser crashes immediately whether opened from the scheduler or from a context menu and gives a windows crash notification with the following error: "Eraser has stopped working"

The crash dialogue simply says the program has stopped working nothing more. I was able to find the AppCash report file that windows generated. Not sure if it helps but here are the contents of the file:

I am also seeing the same error with Windows Vista 64. I did manage to get the program to install after stopping all programs that interact with Windows explorer. But the program hangs the moment it is either double-clicked to start or right-clicked on a file and erase is selected. I will try a clean boot next before installation and let you know if it works afterward. I did not realize the installation program uses Windows installer until I got the error message when I tried to install it in safe mode. If all else fails, I will try installing v5.87. It is working in Windows 7 64 also installed on the same computer.
